Property description
Ridgeway is an attractive residential road standing close to the outskirts of Ottery St Mary, away from the busier streets, but within walking distance of the town amenities. The nearby countryside offers excellent walking facilities.
This is a traditional town cottage boasting many original features with exposed beams and feature fireplace. The cottage has been sympathetically updated and improved over the years creating a perfect blend of stylish contemporary fixtures and fittings, without compromising the character enjoyed with this age of property. The accommodation briefly comprises spacious sitting room with feature fireplace, window seat and exposed beams. The well equipped kitchen has a range of contemporary cream fronted units enhanced by timber effect work tops and attractive tiled splashbacks. The recently refurbished bathroom is another appealing feature with a stylish white suite and attractive Porcelanosa effect tiles with mosaic border. On the first floor are two bedrooms, both affording fine views across the town towards East Hill and Sidmouth Gap. The property benefits from uPVC double glazing and gas central heating.
To the rear is a nice size, partly walled, beautiful cottage style garden bursting with a variety of plants, shrubs and trees creating a range of colour throughout the year. Expanse of lawn, patio and gravelled seating area providing plenty of outdoor dining space. Very useful outbuilding with light and power that would lend itself for a variety of uses including a small workshop or utility area.
Ottery St Mary is one of the most pleasant and friendly small towns in East Devon with many amenities, shops, pubs, churches, good schools including the excellent Kings School, post office, banks, medical centre, local hospital, recreational activities, sports centre and bus services. Although surrounded by beautiful open countryside it is particularly accessible; within 6 miles of the coast at Sidmouth, Exeter 10 miles (M5 junctions) with the new A30 dual carriageway giving swift access and Honiton 6 miles with further shops, amenities and mainline station (Waterloo-Exeter).
